    For me I would crop off the water in No 3 and then convert to high contrast B&W.
    Also have a look at a crop to remove the dark foreground in No 2 and see what you think.

    Colour in the 2nd one is great, agree that removing the dark foreground is worth a shot

    Not sure I could see that the horizon was crooked which I think was Patricks comment ?

    I like the edits you have done.
    What do you think yourself?

    Any more / larger shots of the basking sharks?

    Yep, I really think they are all better a a result of the advice.

    I was surprised that the light house looked better with out the sea in front of it, I thought the sea “placed” it quite well but it definitely looks better with out the sea, makes it look more isolated maybe ?

    My favourite is definitely the B&W version of the lighthouse, it’s turned me off the colour version . I now feel the sky looks too blue on the colour version although to be fair it was a beautiful day and the sky was actually close to that blue. The B&W does not reflect the fine day that it was but I still prefer it.

    Not sure about the red sky, it has improved but feels a bit flat as a photo for me. It was a spectacular sky but the photo does not capture the breadth of it.

    Great advice in general though and much appreciated !

    These photos have no artistic merit what so ever unlike my other pictures ‘:wink:’

    More sharks as requested. We were out on a 19ft bayliner powerboat and this guy apeared. They are harmless plankton eaters but are REALLY big and ominous especially when the come so close our liddle boat :lol:

    Shark Attack !!!!!!!!!!

    These things get to be pretty big you know!

    Phew looks like he disappeared down the plug hole :->

    Bit of a Jaws moment there; dun dun dun dun and all that :D

    I think I’m correct in thinking that it can be difficult enough to find those Basking sharks.

    On the other photos, the crop and the b+w conversion have improved the photos.
    Good conversion too btw, not always that easy to do imho.
